A bit installed. Getting my feet wet. The top side, bottom corner mucked up a bit. I think the seam folded over underneath. I used double sided after that to secure it. Not my side lol

Instalei Pedal extension. Kind of confined place to install, but thanks to the experience from others, I did check which were the best and smallest tools that I could use. Took me 15 minutes and Inam not mechanically inclined.

Mounted and wired my reverse light pod. Also test fitted the TRD style spoiler that I recently had painted up. Very excited to get the spoiler installed finally, scared to drill, but excited still. (Dunno why pic with spoiler goes upside down when I upload...)

I found it a heck of a lot easier to just remove the pedal altogether ;-)

Yes, this was one of the alternatives, probably quicker than the way I did.

Most of people I saw trying, they used plyers and stuff like that. I just got a very small wrench and allen key and it was fine. Did not have issues reaching any location.

Corsa exhaust is installed! Man it sounds mean, coupled with the Tomei UEL header. It is a bit loud when you stomp on it, but I love it.

Not bad, actually. I kept the stock catted front pipe. When I drove home I needed room for the stock exhaust and had the back seats down - that was deafening.

It is okay now with the seats up. Also, Corsa isn’t known for being deafening, that’s why I grabbed this one and not like a Tomei Xpreme

I know it's known for being deafening when paired with a catless header. I've had it on my car for 4 years now and still enjoy it. I like the sound so much that I feel like pairing it with a header, especially UEL, would ruin that delicious howl.

It sounds so mean, which is exactly what I wanted. I live in a small town, so I’ll need to shift sooner when it’s late

Loaded her up so I could head to the shop and slap on some newer rubber on her

Finally did my after video today:

The first video here my BRZ with stock exhaust behind my Tomei UEL header and overpipe:

Here is my final exhaust setup I finished yesterday; Tomei UEL header/over pipe, stock catted front pipe, and Corsa catback exhaust:

Sorry for the weird angles

Wait one ....... I count 8 tires (used) plus 4 that's on your car? You're going to the shop to get 4 new tires?

How many wheels does your car have?

FLIPDADY · 03-07-2021, 02:48 PM

One rim is brand new and the other 3 have worn out rubber

The machine becomes weightless. Just disappears. And all that's left is a body moving through space and time. 7,000 RPM. That's where you meet it. You feel it coming. It creeps up on you, close in your ear. Asks you a question. The only question that matters. Who are you?
